About us

Lostgens established in early 2004 by a group of artists. Though situated in the bustling capital city, Lostgens has managed to take on a certain quietness and edginess that comes from being off the beaten track. This self-managed experimental space aims to encourage originality, creativity, individuality, as well as to promote contemporary arts. It provides an alternative space for budding innovative exhibitions and performances. Lostgens has entered a next phase of unique development and operation. What started as a small private group has now moved out into the public, Lostgens aims to weave itself into the multicultural artistic atmosphere. More than just a place that brings together artists, it also provides a platform for a dynamic growth of multi-layered artistic culture.

Why lostgens?

Hemingway once said, "Every generation has had any cause to feel lost past, and future. " Each generation must then use their cultural resistance to the dominant culture, values and then destroy the existing framework. Challenging young people to strive to mainstream culture seems to be every era of "renegade" one thing, because there are different background environment in positive and negative ways, it will create an alternative to mainstream single culture .
